I've been gaming since 1977 at age 9-Present and still own my launch consoles from Atari-PS4 especially all Nintendo consoles and games in there original boxes...I would like to know are any of these consoles from your childhood.
I wish I could say the same. My first memory of video gaming was on my families Intellivision. I've had every Nintendo console since they were new and I had a Turbografx-16 when it was new. Sadly, the only on that remains is a badly yellowed SNES.
Just stumbled across this video. This by far is one of the best video game room tours and walkthroughs I have ever seen. Had to add this to my saved list. Will be watching this again? Thanks guy!🙏
How do you comfortable play on the consoles without killing your back or neck? I want to be able to sit in a gaming pc chair right in front of my setup but I’m looking to have a setup similar to yours.
@@schweattybut the console and controllers have short chords, do you have to pull out the consoles onto the floor to be able to play for the more retro consoles to be able to play on your recliner?
I brought the same tesmart 16-port hdmi switch for all my consoles. that hdmi switch puts out 4k@60hz 4:4:4, I have my ps5, ps4, and xbox one x connected to it, of course all my other hdmi modded consoles and a scaler
A quick search on aliexpress (where I got mine 2 years ago) didn't have any. I found a few on ebay but they were significantly more expensive than what I paid. Inflation I guess. I would suggest 2 8-port switches. Much cheaper
Thanks, this is a really helpful video, but I'm wondering about that component video switcher. Can you give more information about it or where to find it?
It was made by psyclone in the early 00's. It isn't produced any more. I dont know much about it really. If you want a new component switch, there are cheap mechanical ones that don't introduce any lag. I used to use one. They are available on amazon
i noticed a lack of rom carts, they're very expensive though. the gamecube silent fan mods are funny, i got both the noctua and the other one with the blue fan, both are still loud. just no way around that given the lack of space to install a thicker fan. interested to see what you did for the nes, i'll go look it up. nice setup, simple'ish and effective.
Thanks for the video - Just curious are you only just using the centre speakers for all your retro game audio? I was thinking of doing the same vs having a completed surround sound setup for a very small room
That was a 7 year old LG OLED. I recently replaced it with a LG C2. It works great in my setup. For the switch, search Aliexpress for "16 port hdmi switch"
Could you list out which mods you've used for each system? Sorry, I know it's a lot but it would be good to know! I have a similar setup but I've opted for the even cheaper composite output for all my systems into a RetroTINK 5x which I do have to constantly mess with to get the right profile loaded. I REALLY like what you've done to make it "just work" when you turn on a system. Nice setup!
Looking good! Is it awkward trying to play the consoles that are connected via the Retro Tink since they aren’t facing the OLED? Just trying to envision how that area looks/works when the actual controllers are plugged in and in use...
boy wait till you hear of pc gaming and emulation lol . i emulate my retro games now i live in a samll room so i am forced too have that . i normaly emulate ps1 ps2 ps3 psp ps vita wii wii u game cube 3ds switch and game boy color and advance and gameboy so i am good on pc
The video explains all the modifications to every system. If you Google the names of each mod kit I mention in the video, you can get additional information on them.
